Anatomical Position Song Lyrics
You gotta study for a test tonight
Forget the book a demonstrations just fine
And move your glut(eal) from side to side
learn anatomical position tonight
You gotta study for a test tonight
Forget the book a demonstrations just fine
Just dance but youll still use your mind
That's your cephalic its just
ANATOMY
Inversion with your feet, then raise your knee
Pronation then occurs when you stomp the street
You gotta Listen to the beat and then repeat
walk man working out thoracic cavity
ha! Flextion of your brachial
bending of the cubital
nodding back and forth until it hurts your cervical
and that's not all so please don't stop
jump to the coxal like hip hop
In my room prone, studying terms
Supine on a recline trying to learn
Memorizing the meanings of directional terms
Right or left, its just symmetry, no concern
Above is superior
Below is inferior
telling me your something your just frontin like ANTERIOR
So trust me its anatomy the ventrals to the front side
Dorsals to the back or the spine
yooo i'm runnin in place, MID-SAGITTAL keeps it's place
and the FRONTAL plane seperates your back from your face
now use your brain to understand the TRANSVERSE plane is horizontal
perpendicular to that matter of fact is called the SAGGITAL
You gotta study for a test tonight
Forget the book a demonstrations just fine
And move your glut(eal) from side to side
learn anatomical position tonight
You gotta study for a test tonight
Forget the book a demonstrations just fine
Just dance but youll still use your mind
That's your cephalic its just
ANATOMY
step up fast, flex your hip
like the other day we did in class
increase the angle, extensions mad
now stop check out brad
raise your scapula up, elevation
lower the scapula down, depression
anterior motion relax, protraction
posterior motion retract, retraction
stand up, arms down
palms up, feet down on the ground
ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY
* Anatomical Position - The starting point whenever discussing the body
Planes of The Body
* Midsagittal (median) Plane - Runs longitudinally or vertically down the body, anterior to posterior. Divides body into "equal half's"
* Sagittal Planes- Run parallel to the Midsagittal plane
*Frontal (Coronal) Plane- Creates an anterior and posterior section (front and back)
*Transverse (horizontal) Plane- Passes through the body and creates superior and inferior sections (top and bottom)
Body Cavities
*Dorsal- Located on the posterior aspect of the body
*Cranial cavity-contains the brain
*Spinal (Vertebral) Cavity- Contains the spinal cord
*Ventral Cavity- Divided into smaller sections (Thoracic cavity)
*Abdominopelvic Cavity- Smaller sections include Abdominal Cavity and Pelvic Cavity
Directional Terminology
*Prone- Lying face down or belly down in a horizontal, recumbent position
*Supine- Lying face up or belly up in a horizontal, recumbent position
*Anterior (Ventral)- Pertaining to the front side of a structure; the navel is anterior to the vertebral column
*Posterior (Dorsal) - Pertaining to the back of a structure; the vertebral column is posterior to the lungs
*Superior (Cranial, Cephalic) -Situated above or toward the head end; the jaw is superior to the navel
*Inferior (Caudal) - Situated below or toward the tail end; the sacrum is inferior to the skull
*Medial -Oriented toward or near the midline of the body; the nose is medial to the ears
*Lateral - Oriented farther away from the midline of the body; the ribs are lateral to the vertebral column
*Homolateral (Ipsilateral) - Related to the same side of the body; the right hand is homolateral to the right elbow
*Contralateral - Related to opposite side of the body; the right foot is contralateral to the left foot
*Proximal - Nearer to the point of reference, usually toward the trunk of the body; the hip is proximal to the knee. Used only on the extremities
*Distal - Farther from the point of reference, usually away from the midline; the foot is distal to the hip. Used only on the extremities
*Central - Pertaining to or situated at a center of the body; often referred to as DEEP; the heart is centrally located, and the heart is deep to the rib cage
*Peripheral - Pertaining to the outside surface, periphery, or surrounding external area of a structure; often referred to as SUPERFICIAL; the skin is superficial to the bones
*Internal - Nearest the inside (within) of a body cavity; the stomach is an internally located organ
*External - Nearest the outside of a body cavity; the skin is located on the external surface of the body

Actions of the Body
- Flexion- bends or decreases the angle of a joint
- Insertion- moves toward to origin
- Extension- straightens or increases the angle of a joint
- Abduction- movement away from the median plane
- Adduction- movement toward the median plane
- Supination- lateral, outward rotation of the foreasrm, the palm is turned up as if to hold a cup of soup
- Pronation- medial, inward rotation of the forearm; the palm is turned down to spill
- Plantar flexion- extension of the ankles so that the toes are pointing downward
- Dorsi flexion- flexing the foot dorsally do that the toes are moving towards the shin
- Inversion- elevation of the medial edge of the foot so that the sole is turned inward (medially)
- Eversion- elevation of the lateral edge of the foot so that the sole is turned outward (laterally)
- Circumduction- distal end moves in a circle and proximal end is relatively fixed; combination of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction
- Rotation- circular movement when a bone moves around its own central axis
- upward and downward rotation is reserved for the scapula
- Elevation- raising or lifting a body part
- Depression- lowering or dropping a body part
- Protraction- movement forward
- Retraction- movement backward
- Opposition- occurs only at the carpal metacarpal joint of the thumb; bringing pad of the thunb towards the middle finger
